How do you make pot roast?

18. We usually do ours in the crockpot.

We season the meat on both sides with salt, pepper, seasoning salt and a little garlic powder. Then we lightly flour each side and place it in a hot skillet (medium high temp) with about 1 tablespoon of bacon grease or olive oil to sear both sides. I put a slow cooker liner into my crockpot and cover the bottom with large dices of onion, add 1 cup of beef broth (you can use bouillon), then add half of my potatoes, carrots, celery and bell pepper. I place the roast in the crockpot, then put the remaining veggies on top of it (including more onion). Finally, add more seasonings on top. We let it roast on low for about 6 hours.

Bell peppers can get a little mushy if they are fresh, so I keep a stash of frozen bell pepper chunks for crockpot cooking.

By the way, I love all these great ideas. I think I'm going to try using red wine the next time I make one.
